I'm fine with either, but I don't want the styles mixed: THAT is hard to

Just to be a devil's advocate...
The advantage of top posting is that the new addition to the thread is obvious.
With bottom posting, the new reply appears in the middle of the message, often
with text both above and below it.
Probably because of the default behavior of many email clients, most

I saw this in an email exchange a few years back that can be summarized as:

Actually, when a conversation has mixed before-and-after comments, it is
pretty hard to follow. I don't know if there is a standard for how to reply

Is there really a convention for replies? Gmail puts my replies at the top
by default (like this), but if they are supposed to be at the bottom, I can
pretty easily do that as well. But I haven't seen a FAQ or heard that this
is a convention.

Then just hi-lite the part you want to reply to before hitting reply-to-all.

It does but you have to click the 3 dots to expand the previous
conversations first.
Also on Apple it would be the Apple key and End.

3. Setup 2 shortcuts using the gnucash file name and probably the file path

If your file paths contain spaces you'll probably need double quotes around
